Clutch Problems

[AussieinNC]

These clips snap sometimes due to age, but mostly from incorrect installation...

Make sure you get all of the broken pieces out of the fork...clean the socket up real good and use some moly grease on the pivot ball and inside the cup area where the ball pivots...

The clip should expand over the pivot...put the release bearing on the trans snout and install the trans with the release fork pushrod end just hanging thru the bell housing hole.

When trans is in place, align the forks of the release lever into the release bearing, push the pivot fork over it pivot...

Before you begin assembling everything...make absolutely sure the release bearing is the correct one...post a pic of the bearing and a pic of the clutch pressure plate finger area...and we will confirm if its correct or not...there are two different bearings, one for a diaphragm style clutch and one for a Long Style clutch...

Warning...most auto parts outlets list the INCORRECT bearing !!!!!!
